Global Urethral Strictures – Forecast Till 2023

The Type and Condition (Hypospadias & Epispadias), Cause, Treatment & Gender (Male, Female) with the End-user - This report is published by Market Research Future

Urethral stricture refers to the narrowing of the urethra. This disease causes an inflammation of the urethra that narrows or
blocks the passageway through which the urine flows from the bladder. The stricture could be caused
due to inflammation, infection, or injury. It is much more common in men than in women. The
urethral stricture market could be driven by the increasing prevalence of urethral strictures, rising
cases of urolithiasis in the adult population, and the growing incidence of urinary incontinence.
Hypospadias is a common congenital malformation that requires surgical repair, and its long-term management requires a substantial amount of socioeconomic resources. The rising prevalence of hypospadias is of major interest for healthcare providers, clinical medicines, and research. According to a study published by the NCBI in 2016, the mean prevalence for hypospadias in North America was 34.2, followed by 19.9 in Europe, 0.6 to 69 in Asia, and 5.9 in Africa.
